Sunday Photo- Truckers in North Carolina

5 trucks, 5 people, 5 lives, 5 worries, 5 jubilations and 5 different stories of life on the road. There is a certain mystique to life on the road. For a guy who generally works in an office and is a slave to a different kind of machine, this mysterious lifestyle has an interesting draw. The enticement of freedom on the road. A fantasy of traveling great distances as the last remnants of the great American Cowboys. Seeing amazing sights, crossing continents, climbing great elevations, and meeting interesting people. But these 5 people are also captive. Drudges of the same gears on the machine I’m a part of. A critical cog driving consumerism, commercialism and capitalism to the masses. Imagine for a second the impact if they simply didn’t exist.
